"I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, Born of the Virgin Mary, Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell". This is the opening line of the Apostles Creed, but what do they mean by "He descended into hell"?Did he go down to hell? Is "hell" in that statement the same hell that we think of? Where did Jesus go when he died? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller discuss this creed that has been past down for almost 2,000 years and what do they mean by Jesus descended into hell. Is that really where He went when He died? Is hell what we think it is? What does the Bible say about all of this? Grab your Bible on this one and bring out your theology cap as we dive into this episode.
